Chex Mix

055

This has been a staple in my family for years.  Someone coming over?  Make chex mix.  Holiday coming up?  Better make some chex mix.  Want a delicious snack?  You get the point.  My mom always made this in the oven (I think she still does actually…it make the house smell DIVINE!) but when I was short on time and needed one more thing to fill the table for book club, I figured I’d give this a shot in the microwave.

End result?  Amazing.  Simply amazing.  Plus it only took half the time!  And who doesn’t love chex mix?  I can’t think of anyone who doesn’t love these easy treat!  Enjoy (and don’t eat it it all before your guests arrive)!
